Hotel Midtown Richardson

Hotel has a very good location - the best part is it’s located near the MRT, and within walking distance to Ximending shopping street. Downside is check-in is strictly at 3pm only due to system constraint- it’s self check in.

The hotel location is fantastic. Just opposite the famous area of Ximending and easy access to anywhere. The subway mrt station just a 2 min walking distance from the hotel. The bathroom and toilet in the room is spacious and great.

Everytime we go to taiwan we always stay at this hotel as we are a family of 4. The location is about 10 mins walk to ximending thats the shopping area. The hotel now DOES NOT give toilettries in thr bathroom. They just have the dispenser of shampoo and shower gel. So you have to bring your own toothrbush, toothpaste, shaver, vanity kit etc. They do change your bath towels VERY PROMPTLY. The receptionists were all fabulous! Very courteous! Very nice to talk to! We will definitely still stay at this hotel the next time we go back to taiwan. Happy New Year everyone! 😘😘😘

What about no directory when U go up to 15th floor? So one has to 1) figure out the logic (ya, the logic is half numerical, and half odd/even-which half belongs to which? U have to get some luck!) of room number arrangements 2) search from 1-95 left and right just to know where the hell/heaven we are in. There are 4 alleys leading to different directions of the buildings. Really fun when you need to roll over heavy luggages, particular after a long day. Spent 30mins up and down to figure out where the room is. Waste of time.

Location is good, next to MRT Ximen exit 4. But facilities kinda really old and mold on ceiling (you can see it when you're in) and some point on the floor (not really smell so bad). The bathroom is most important, but leaking water too much when you take a shower. Even you close the door completely, still leaking and water spilled out over the floor and flooding like mini ocean. I tried to talk to receptionist and they knew what happend. They said that you should to take shower facing to the wall not the door to solve the problem :)) but it still happen everytime you take a shower

Pros - Super Convenient across a traffic crossing Is XiMenDing Night Market and street for food, souvenirs , local snacks and some shopping. - Very Grand Looking Building and Lobby looks newly renovated and the wallpaper and design of the rooms looks nice overall. - The location is like close to many attractions for example it takes only 3-4 stops of bus/metro can bring you to places like diff night markets Raohe, Ningxia , Dongmen Market, Nanmen Market or Zhongshan station. Cons Cleanliness/Hygiene is the biggest concern - Seen many bad reviews but chose to stay as I have limited choices as I book 1 week before stay and due to the location I have to take into consideration staying with my parents. - Dirty/mushy carpets on the corridor of the rooms looked stained. - Leaking Shower Heads hose with black/stained rubber seals on the shower head water outlet - Sofa that makes u itchy and the quvet/bedsheet of the bed was making u itch - Slept first night with itch on my family room with 2 queen bed and my bed was the one which itched, day 2 morning put on the green sign label on my bed to request for change of bedsheet and come back at night after a long day found it to be the same as my quvet I saw mini blood stain on it was exactly the same immediately I called the receptionist for a change of bedsheet and the room maker says quvet would only be changed upon request at the reception. - Upon sleeping there for at least 3 nights I realise that they sometimes don’t change your towels or bedsheet but instead they would just rearrange instead even if u put on the change of bedsheet signboard. - Fridge was small but sufficient but it was so loose and light weight n shaky if u open with slightly stronger force it will drop out of the shelve - Last of all the concept of the bath tub was so bad u have to climb into the bath tub to shower which is normal at some hotel but it isn’t all cause they have a sliding glass on the bathtub to prevent water spilling over but it was not fixed to slide open wide enough it’s tight for u to climb in and it can be slippery even with the slip mat in the bathtub climbing in and out could easily be a risk of slip and fall especially with my parents they can incur even higher risk. Credits to the Philippine Lady room maker she was very polite and helpful she does thing very fast and help to change of bedsheet even at night 10-11pm without being unglam when we encounter itch and she provided a bedsheet cloth to lay over the sofa and spray disinfectant on it to ensure comfort for us.
